Field-free molecular orientation by a multicolor laser field
نویسندگان
چکیده
We theoretically study the field-free molecular orientation by a multicolor laser field with a superposition of the fundamental wave and its harmonics. It is shown that the molecular orientation will be up to a maximum value pumped by the four-color laser field at the same laser intensity, and the molecular orientation direction and its degree can be controlled by varying the carrier-envelope phase of the four-color laser field. It is also indicated that the molecular orientation induced by a four-color laser field can be tremendously enhanced by applying another in-phase or out-phase four-color laser field at the beginning of the rotational wave-packet rephasing or the end of the rotational wave-packet dephasing.

Two-state wave packet for strong field-free molecular orientation.
We demonstrate strong laser-field-free orientation of absolute-ground-state carbonyl sulfide molecules. The molecules are oriented by the combination of a 485-ps-long nonresonant laser pulse and a weak static electric field. The edges of the laser pulse create a coherent superposition of two rotational states resulting in revivals of strong transient molecular orientation after the laser pulse....
متن کاملField-free orientation of CO molecules by femtosecond two-color laser fields.
We report the first experimental observation of nonadiabatic field-free orientation of a heteronuclear diatomic molecule (CO) induced by an intense two-color (800 and 400 nm) femtosecond laser field. We monitor orientation by measuring fragment ion angular distributions after Coulomb explosion with an 800 nm pulse. The orientation of the molecules is controlled by the relative phase of the two-...

We explore the role of laser induced anti-alignment in enhancing molecular orientation. A field-free enhanced orientation via anti-alignment scheme is presented, which combines a linearly polarized femtosecond laser pulse with a half-cycle pulse. The laser pulse induces transient anti-alignment in the plane orthogonal to the field polarization, while the half-cycle pulse leads to the orientatio...
متن کاملField-free molecular orientation enhanced by two dual-color laser subpulses.
In this paper, we theoretically show that the field-free molecular orientation created by a single dual-color laser pulse can be significantly enhanced by separating it into two time-delayed dual-color subpulses. It is indicated that the maximum enhancement of the molecular orientation created by two time-delayed dual-color subpulses can be achieved with their intensity ratio of about 1:2 and b...
